Summary/Abstract: A text describing and analyzing two projects for the Theater Institute conceived and directed by Marta Górnicka – [kwīr ŭv wĭm’ĭn]. The author analyzes the choral form of the play created with amateurs on the basis of a script compiled from very disparate texts – from the Bible to advertising slogans. The plays focus on women’s predicament in culture, though in Guderian-Czaplińska’s view they do not depart from the social norm, and are in no way transgressive or provocative. They do show, however, how to mess around with the social division of voices without straying past the borders of the theater.
